Chapter 657: Time Flies
"Bang..."
After a dull sound, a firework burst into the sky, exploded in the air, and formed a huge circular wreath that was released for a long time.
Immediately after that, the second, the third...
Brilliant fireworks rose into the open space in front of the palace, illuminating the night of Chinese New Year's Eve as bright as day.
At the other end of the square are the people watching the fireworks, and as the fireworks rise, the cheers and cheers are like a tide, wave after wave, never stopping.
The palace wall is also lively, Ye Xun's family all gathered here, looking up to watch the fireworks show.
At this time, it was already the sixth year of Longxi.
In six years, with the flick of a finger, several children have also grown up like a blow.
In six years, Ye Xun was not idle, and after Baozhu gave birth to another son, according to Ye Xun's promise, he changed his son's surname to Zhang, which was a complete fulfillment of his father-in-law's wish.
After Red Sleeves gave birth to a daughter, there were no more children, and the Hua sisters added a pair of daughters to Ye Xun, while Xiao Luo and Arjuna both gave birth to sons.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, if Ye Xun only has one child, it would be fine, and now that several wives have children like a competition, the subjects can't help but doubt the authenticity of Ye Xun, the eunuch.
For this reason, a few years ago, there was a royal history whose head was kicked by a donkey to impeach Ye Xun, and even charged Ye Xun with the crime of disturbing the harem.
After his impeachment was handed over, not only did it not resonate among the courtiers, but it waited for a thorough investigation by Jinyiwei.
The final result can be imagined, Yushi was beheaded in the city, and his family was assigned to work in the northwest, and he was never allowed to return to the Central Plains.
After these six years of strengthening, Ye Xun has completely controlled the government affairs and military affairs of the imperial court.
In particular, the Imperial University, which was founded by him, sends a large number of talents to each other and the army every year.
The name of the president of the Imperial University is the emperor, but the emperor is young, and everyone knows that the real president is Ye Xun, and the local officials or army generals who have been trained by Ye Xun are all loyal to Ye Xun.
At the beginning, some scholars were still low-level, feeling that it was humiliating to obey a eunuch.
But with the entry of a large number of poor children, coupled with Ye Xun's principle of fairness and justice, all scholars have adapted to it.
The Ming Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, and the scene of all the countries coming to the dynasty in the past is there, who dares to say that Ye Xun, a eunuch, has a problem governing the country?
Seven-year-old Zhu Cirui's height is obviously higher than that of children of the same age, which is the credit of Ye Xun's teaching of martial arts, but the internal strength is not taught, because Ye Xun's internal skills are not suitable for his son to practice.
Zhu Cirui is the official name, nicknamed Zhen'er, in the hearts of Ye Xun and Baozhu, this son should be called Ye Zhencai.
A seven-year-old child is also the most playful, but his identity is destined to be a lot of things that cannot be caused by his temperament.
So standing beside Ye Xun and Baozhu at a young age, he has the appearance of a young man.
Of course, Baozhu thinks that all this is normal, after all, he will lead this empire in the future, so how can he do it if he is not stable.
Although Ye Xun also understands Baozhu's thoughts, as a descendant, he knows what children at this age need.
After the New Year, Ye Xun plans to take his son on patrol, first let him contact the people, observe the people's feelings, and then take him to the battlefield when he is older.
is still the same sentence as before, Ye Xun will never let his son become a greenhouse flower, let alone let his son be kept in captivity in the big cage of the Forbidden City like the descendants of the Zhu family in the past.
The fireworks continued, and children were playing and chasing each other from time to time in the crowd.
This situation was seen by Xiao Yezhen, and his eyes couldn't help showing yearning, but he knew very well that that kind of life did not belong to him, and his mother did not allow him to leave half a step.
Looking at his son who pursed his lips, Ye Xun couldn't help but feel a trace of soreness in his heart, gently stroked his son's little head, and said: "A person has a person's way of living, and if he is born in the emperor's family, he has to endure the suffering that ordinary people can't bear."
"The Father's Lesson Is That Children Have No Heart for Play"
At a young age, he already has a clear eye for his gestures, and it is difficult to associate him with a seven-year-old child without knowing his actual age.
However, Xiao Ye Zhen left the sight of his mother and teacher Liu Zongzhou, but he was most willing to be with Ye Xun, the second father, that is, the title second only to his father.
Baozhu also touched Xiao Yezhen's head with satisfaction, her son's achievements are the greatest pride of her mother.
Ye Xun beckoned to call him over, and he had already married Zhang Xumin, but according to Ye Xun's requirements, he was not allowed to marry before the age of eighteen, so he remained in the palace.
Although she is not biological, Ye Xun and several wives have never owed her a little bit, and the princess-like treatment makes Xiao Ru more slim.
Seeing Ye Xun calling her, she hurriedly came over and said, "Father, please command!" ”
"Take your brother over there"
After Ye Xun finished speaking, she quietly glanced at Ru Shi, although she was not her biological father and daughter, she knew Ye Xun's mind best, she knew that this look was for her to take her younger brother to play, so she happily agreed, and after giving a salute to Baozhu, she pulled Xiao Ye Zhen and Wushuang Xiaomei to turn around and run.
Ru's age is similar to Da Yu'er, but Da Yu'er has been defaulted to Ye Xun's little lady, so although Da Yu'er is also a fun-loving age, she always pretends to be mature unconsciously.
Ye Xun persuaded Da Yu'er several times, but Da Yu'er didn't listen, and in the end, Ye Xun could only let her go.
The big sister and the big brother ran away, and the rest of the little ones immediately began to cry, as if they had discussed it.
Baozhu gently twisted Ye Xun's arm, and said softly: "Don't think I don't know your ghost thoughts, just this once, not for example"
Ye Xun: "Hey, hey! "I smiled, but I didn't speak, the palace is so big, it's impossible to hide anything.
And Ye Xun also has tricks to deal with these little guys, it turns out that he relied on his memory to order people to make some children's toys for later generations, although they are simpler, but this is ancient, a few seemingly inconspicuous things, enough for the little ones to play.
The children made a fuss, and the women didn't have the heart to watch the excitement, so they each hugged their children and walked back.
Of course, the small amusement park designed by Ye Xun cannot be outdoor.
Ye Xun was at the end, and as soon as he got off the city wall, the guards next to him handed over something.
"Father-in-law, this is an urgent letter that Jalan Sa has just sent through Shuzhong"
Ye Xun took the letter and opened the outer envelope, but saw that it was Mughal writing inside, and immediately understood that it was sent by his father-in-law, Bashik.
With Ye Xun's support, Bashik has now gained a firm foothold in Bengal, and in the other direction, Dolgon and others are also playing well, and it is only a matter of time before Shah Jahan is overthrown if the current momentum continues.
But I don't know what Bashik meant by his letter to himself at this time?
Ye Xun originally wanted to open it, thought about it, and then quickly caught up with Arjuna, who was arguing with the red sleeves, for six years, the two sisters have not stopped, either fighting or bickering, but the relationship is getting closer and closer.
"Your father has a letter, do you want to read it together?"
Arjuna glanced at Ye Xun and said, "You men's affairs, don't bother me!" ”
Ye Xun: ...
